The only business in the Wild West town of Jericho that corrupt sheriff Alex Flood (Dean Martin) doesn't control behind the scenes is the stagecoach owned by tough-willed widow Molly Lang (Jean Simmons) and her right-hand man, Hickman (John McIntire). Former marshal Dolan (George Peppard), recently hired by Lang and Hickman as a driver, wants to stay out of the mess, but when he sees Flood's henchman Yarbrough (Slim Pickens) assault Lang, he steps up to fight the corruption.

This ugly routine Western is advertised as the kind of old-fashioned one they used to make.

While Jericho is short on suspense it makes up for it in plenty of action and brisk direction that keep matters hanging together.

Dean Martin plays the sleaze bag that is just too far gone to make it worth even trying to make him a better person. All the actors were good. This movie is just really good and I will highly recommend it James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas August 18, 2023.

This was a good old western, with Dolan (George Peppard) coming to save the city from the bad villains with Flood (Dean Martin) in Front.

Finally a tale in which the lovable rascal, Dean Martin, finally crosses over and is corrupted by power. A-typical casting makes this bit of the evolution of the Hollywood western worth watching.
